I AM ALWAYS ONE TO LOVE ANY LIL CORNER SHOP, CAFE, HAIRDRESSERS ETC ESPECAILLY IF IT IS RUN BY THE SAME OLD MAN OR LADY, AND KEPT THE SAME AS IT HAS BEEN FOR DECADES!
WHILST RUNNING FROM MEETING NO.1 I CAME ACROSS THIS LITTLE GEM. JUST OFF GREAT TITCHFIELD ST. I ASKED THE LITTLE OLD LADY BEHIND THE COUNTER IF I COULD TAKE HER PICTURE. ONCE I STARTED TO TALK TO HER, SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE HAD BEEN RUNNING THE SHOP SINCE 1954 AND HAD KEPT ALL HER STOCK IN THE SAME POSITIONS IN THE SHOP AS HER HUSBAND HAD LAID THEM OUT 23 YEARS AGO BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY! (OBVIOUSLY WITH NEW STOCK)
I DONT KNOW IF ITS ME, BUT I LOVE HEARING ABOUT PEOPLES LIVES, ESPECAILLY AS YOU KNOW THAT BEFORE YOU KNOW IT THAT SHOP IS GOING TO BE A STARBUCKS OR TESCOS OR ANOTHER BIG NASTY CORPORATION! AND WE ARE ALL WALKING BRAINWASHED LIKE ROBOTS!
